   I have a question regarding if I can limit the network bandwith of 
outbound emails. Do I have to look at iptables to do this or is there 
a option is qmail?

You can limit the size of each email coming in via smtp by putting the 
size limits (in bytes) in /var/qmail/control/databytes.

Bill,
    will this help with outbound emails as well? The company I am 
working with have a 256K upload connection and they will send a 8meg 
email to 2 or 3 addresses at different locations.  When they send the 
email, it will slow down their internet browsing. I know that they 
should upgrade thier DSL service, but they can't.

thanks,
